nugget Posted December 31, 2016 Author Share Posted December 31, 2016 https://soundcloud.com/user-654123716/noodlewav A little noodle recorded directly into a little zoom thing that sucks some of the life / tone. A bit of a double bass walk so let me know if you want different styles etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

therealting Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 This is beautiful. Do you know how much it weighs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therealting Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Also, I'm guessing the bass itself is completely passive? Are the recordings through the pre? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nugget Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 [quote name='therealting' timestamp='1483281427' post='3205856'] This is beautiful. Do you know how much it weighs? [/quote] Its super light 7lb or 3.2kg Yes its completely passive, shadow USA Piezo direct to Neutrix barrel jack. 1st recording was headway (eq flat) into crap zoom, the zoom colours the tone so much! 2nd recording was DI into a friends audio interface this morning without headway. I've played directly into my EA amp and the piezo had plenty of output that it didnt need a pre, it just warms the sound up really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
